She's gone!

The first fledgeling to fly the nest! (Sniff!) :( Yes, just two hours ago - Ms Miffy packed up her Miffmobile, and called round to BF, before setting off down the motorway to her 'own' flat. And tomorrow at 9.30 a.m. sees her starting off on the long road to being a real live artist. An artist, according to her, who is suffering from a severe case of 'Can't draw any moreitis.' Which might prove to be the teensiest drawback seeing as she's on an art and design foundation course.

And the responsibilities of adulthood are weighing heavily on her shoulders. We trailed round Tescos the other night stocking up - with daughter determined to stick to her budget for the week. There were moral and ethical decisions to be made. Organic, free-range and fairly traded goods eat a large hole out of it. In the end, she went without chicken rather than buy the cheaper, but 'non well brought up' variety. I can see myself sneaking food parcels over to her. (Although I've been told it might be best not to let BF pass them on - or they might never reach their destination!)

(Sniff again) Here I am - stuck in a house with two hairy males! :(

Oh well. She's only a train ride away.
